Has any one ever tried using shade cloth over ponds to keep the water temps down ? I have a 150 ft by 80 ft wide pond 14 ft deep I want to keep trout in all year long but the water temps get to high in summer. I was thinking of buying shade cloth that they put over top of greenhouses and suspending it over the top of my pond by about 6 ft to 8 ft to keep the water temps down during June thru August. I would also like to know if running my aerator which is at 6ft deep at night would help cool the pond water down. Any advice or experience would be appreciated.
